Full list of postcodes experiencing Royal Mail delays
If you have ordered something that is being sent through Royal Mail, it might be arriving a little later than usual.
Royal Mail deliveries are currently facing delays in areas including Bedford, Deal, Huntingdon, and Llangefni.
Here are all of the postcodes across England and Wales that are currently experiencing delays.
What postcodes are experiencing Royal Mail delays?
Royal Mail posts its service updates to keep its customers aware of any issues happening at its local offices.
The delivery company said: “We aim to deliver to all addresses we have mail for, six days a week.
“In a small number of local offices, this may temporarily not be possible due to local issues such as high levels of sick absence, resourcing, or other local factors.
“In those cases, we will rotate deliveries to minimise the delay to individual customers.
“We also provide targeted support to those offices to address their challenges and restore our service to the high standard our customers would normally receive.”
